As an lsu fan I can tell you NOTHING is worse then little brother syndrome. LSU has had one of the hottest teams the past 2 seasons...youd think it'd be great. But no theres a rain cloud called Alabama that has taken all the attention. If the Seahawks dont beat the niners.. they'll just be a team that had a hot streak living in the shadow of division rival big brother niners who come along to keep little brother in check.

If my prediction in Aros' prediction thread is right, we'll no doubt be in the top 3, if not the top spot... 52-20 victory + hurting Kapernuts and forcing them to play a downtrodden QB in Smith. First team ever to score 50+ in 3 straight games...oh yeah. #1 indeed.

NFC West Titles last 10 years:Rams... 149ers... 2Cards... 2Hawks... 5

I think we're simply taking back what is rightfully ours... maybe not this year, but we're poised for another multi-year run...

Oh dear.

You all came to the NFC West after realignment at the perfect time, while the Rams were coming down from the greatest show in turf and the Niners era of dominance was all but over. The Cards have historically been awful so there's that.

On the topic of power rankings, I see some rankings out there this week that have the Packers over the Niners.... I can't even see how that would be realistic, seeing as how SF already won that game.

If Seahawks wins this week I don't doubt that we will be ranked higher than 49ers. We are getting the media noise now that many wanted and if we go in on Sunday night and beat the niners straight up we will be ranked top 4 no doubt

Those power rankings will be extremely important as we move to the playoffs. Every team will put those rankings on the board and then when they play a team ranked higher than them they will just forfeit the games..........

In summation, power rankings are whack.

Power rankings have nothing to do with results of individual games, otherwise the Rams would be ranked higher then both the 49ers and the Seahawks.

Lol then how exactly would the Seahawks be ranked higher if they win? I don't think they would, nor should they be personally. Especially if they only win by 3 or so. Now if they drop another fitty.... then hell...

They should because everyone knows that after we take care of the 49ers we will take care of the rams

I want this win more than any other game in recent memory! In the unlikely event that we do lose, it wont be an end to the season, we just regroup beat the Rams and make some serious noise in the playoffs!
